Imran warns of street protests if govt doesn’t agree on TORs

PESHAWAR: Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan Saturday warned of taking to streets if the government did not agree on terms of reference (TORs) of Panama leaks probe, ARY News reported.

Speaking to PTI members of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) cabinet, Khan said we will not stay silent on Panama Papers disclosures. He said the government came to talks with them when they set out over Panama Papers leaks.

“We will take to streets as last resort, if the government did not agree on opposition TORs of Panamagate probe,” warned the PTI chairman.

Imran Khan said that we want the prime minister to answer us about four offshore firms owned by him.

The Sharif family is under fire at home after Panama Papers leaks that prompted corruption allegations against it.

Yesterday, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chief, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari had said that there would be no reconciliation with Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif with regard to Panama Papers probe.

He had directed party members to maintain a strict stance on terms of reference (TORs) of the Panama Papers inquiry, said reliable sources.

The PPP chairman finalized party policy in this regard after consultation with former president Asif Ali Zardari.
